The 1980's was a remarkable decade in the History of our Country. It had a strong influence on fashion, music, dance, politics, and television. Some of the best music and television shows we still watch to this day. The Politics during the 1980's still has an effect on us today. What do you miss the most about the 1980's? Is truly the best decade we ever had?

The pop culture was something because it is still recycled today in everything from movies to music. Heck, MTV was new and actually played music.

The 80s was a PC free culture for the most part. You can't have an open and honest discussion today because people will be more concerned about "how" their words will be misinterpreted vs. the content of what they are saying.

SGT Jerrold Pesz, the 1960s were pretty violent in my experience. We had riots and urban terrorists blowing up things for political reasons, and the hippies spitting on us when we went out in uniform. That bled over into the 1970s too.
